Default Negraneu v. Sklansky : Who wins HU?

Negraneu has stated in his blog that he could 'whip sklansky's butt' at poker and sklansky has stated on this forum that Negraneu does not understand EV. Which player would win a HU freezeout?

You left out "not enough information."

You didn't even say what game they're playing, etc.

Dan N., perhaps a better reader?
David, more experience at more games, understands the game theory of shorthanded play far more?

This subject is being discussed at length in more than one thread already.

Sklansky would win this in a landslide.

I know this was inteded as a joke, but David has posted in the past that his biggest edge is in non-standard poker games because he could figure out the proper strategy quicker/better than anyone else.

It has always seemed to me that heads up is Sklansky's weakest point, at least against someone with some aggression going down. Against another tight player heads up I would favor him but in this case its gotta be Daniel.

If they can play online, my money is on Sklansky as a small favorite, any game. I don't care to speculate about offline.

If it's only one freezout? It wouldn't matter who won. It would be nearly meaningless. Make them play at least a 100 HU freezouts. But really we should have a sample size of 1000 HU matches.

That's why I said Sklansky would have a small edge, not Sklansky would win.
